Two new schools broke through to win the Champion School Trophy Shields this year. In the Primary competition, reigning champisons St Brigid’s Middle Swan were just pipped by Oberthur Primary School, with Frederick Irwin Anglican School a close 3rd. In just their third year of competition Mercy College grabbed the secondary shield, mainly thanks to their senior girls. Frederick Irwin, with depth in the Pairs and a good 2nd place in Boys 16A by Lewis Dowding, were next, ahead of All Saints College, Quinns Baptist College and Scotch College sharing 3rd place.

Thanks to all schools for participating, and to their teachers for their support and enthusiasm. Thanks also to all the wonderful Orienteering WA members who volunteer their time, and to the event sponsors Healthway. Special thanks to management and staff of Whiteman Park for their support.
